UFSM offers the following initiatives to host foreign researchers:
CNPq Visiting Researcher
Applications for CNPq visiting researcher scholarships are made through CNPq calls for application. You must have a CV registered on the Lattes platform. The activities must be carried out in person at UFSM, for no more than 12 months. The application is submitted via an online proposal form on the Carlos Chagas Platform, by a supervisor at the home institution and must include a research project with an activity schedule. Before applying, it is necessary to have previously contacted the hosting Unit/Supervisor at UFSM.
Researcher from a Partner Institution
Foreign researchers from partner institutions are also welcome to work at UFSM. The cooperation agreement between the partner institutions must include research activities in the work plan. This type of initiative must be arranged directly with the hosting Graduate Program.
For specific questions regarding partner institutions, please contact us at: sai.bilateral@ufsm.br
Researcher for a Specific Group
Specific research groups at UFSM may host foreign researchers. This type of initiative must be arranged directly with the hosting group. Remember that it is essential to register as an International Special Activity (AEE) to have access to UFSM’s facilities, such as Library and University Restaurant. This registration can be provided by the hosting group.
